It's kinda baffling.
Clark Kent, aka Kal-El, aka Superman is among the most physically powerful characters ever created in fiction, and yet he seems to find comparatively more success on the small screen with their smaller budgets than he does on the big screen with their bigger budgets.
You'd think, outside looking in, that it would be the opposite: he'd mostly flounder on the small screen and thrive on the big screen where he could let loose.
I think it comes down to Clark's massive (and mostly human) supporting cast, which lend themselves better for long-form storytelling that TV offers.
What do you think?
